Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 12

CD27 12DPO here, AF was due today on Glow but has no showed thus far so I tested... BFN! Not a rogue line in sight...

Glow now predicting AF on wednesday... maybe due to my temps, I had a dip on 10DPO then back up 11 & today so maybe that's changed things... who knows. No spotting or anything though. The stiff neck I had on Friday is still lingering and feeling a bit hot flushy but nothing out of the ordinary for pre-AF... I did let myself get a bit excited but trying to chill out now. If AF does arrive that will be a 14 day LP which is good compared to other months so that's something.

If I am out for this month might treat myself to a CBFM next weekend.

Chin up and dust to all x

Cyanist I absolutely get you on this - we had a girl in with her newborn at work last week and one of the other girls leans in to me and whispers.... "doesn't it make you want one?"... I know she didn't mean anything by it, it was just an innocent comment, but it stopped me in my tracks and I found myself waffling something like "enjoying married life while we can" or similar rubbish and then rushing off... cringe!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend. I think I ovulated on CD12, and we BD on 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15.

Spoke to my old neighbour on friday and in our 5 minute conversation he asked if I was pregnant yet, why wasn't I pregnant yet, and told me that if DH was bored at work I should just have a baby as that will keep him occupied. He is a lovely guy but he knows we've been married for 12 years and that we've always wanted children. How hard is it to figure out that there's a good chance it's just not working out for us?

Hi all,

I had loads of support on this thread when ttc our first child, and now we've been ttc our second since 05/2015, I thought I'd join back in if possible please?

I'm 32 and I'm on CD21. I'm not sure exactly when I ovulated but I used a predictor based on my cycle length and we tried to BD around the time it said. I didn't seem to get my EWCM this month at all (usually it's really obvious when I'm due to ov), so not sure why. AF should be due on 30th by my average cycle length.

It took us 11 months to conceive our DS (nearly 3), and we used a CBFM for the last 5 months. It all got a bit clinical and I got very stressed, so this time, we've tried to be slightly more casual about it. However, I do still have my CBFM from last time (plus a new one in a box). Does anyone know the cheapest place to get the sticks? Mine is the old style monitor, but as they're discontinued now, I don't know if they have them in date still. Am I better off using cheapo ov sticks?

Sorry for all the questions on my first visit. So main facts to add to list:

Hi all, welcome to newcomers Sorry to hear about your mc, MovingUp. My inbox is always empty if you need to talk about it. It will get easier but you will feel awful for a while.

Sorry to hear about AF Lemon Tree, hopefully Cycle Seven will work!

Tell me about the insensitive comments! Luckily I still have that protective layer from my friends but they still say things that strike a nerve but they don't mean it.

I'm CD23 today, one week down, one to go! Normally I'm a right cranky bee with an itch but I'm not too bad atm. I also have hardly any spots and I've had a bit more CM but that changes from month to month so I never really monitor it.

Good luck for all those in the TWW!

Hello to all new and rejoining people. Good luck to all.

We're just carrying on, BD every other day as planned. We're either on CD15 or CD17, as before I'm unsure due to the way it started. Don't think OV has happened yet, but signs suggest it's on its way very soon.

Been very positive so far. Just really hoping we're successful. Probably too much to hope it'll work first try after, but giving it a darn good go!

Morning,

Big temp drop this morning, the witch is looming large.... expected any time today now I think. Ahh, temping, so useful yet brings the disappointment even sooner than POAS!

Oh well... can anyone recommend the best place to buy the CBFM and share any experience using it? I will watch the video on the CB site but can't access it at work. Might get some Preseed/Conceive+ too so any experiences with this would be useful too?

Keeping nice and positive... no tears this month! Month 6 could be the one, just need to keep telling myself that... I've learnt so much about my body in the last 5 months, its been a real eye opener for sure.

Good luck all 2ww and BDers xx

Morning all. CD26 & feel rotten, almost vomited making breakfast this morning, sore nipples & so bloated I Iook as if I'm 5 months gone. Trying to keep calm, but failing miserably

Fingers crossed for you angel - when is your testing day?

CD33 5DPO. AF due tomorrow if my first 2 cycles were correct, Friday if the last one was.

Praying it doesn't come as that would be a stupidly short luteal phase please keep your fingers crossed for me!!

Equally, if I'm not pregnant this month I guess i would like to know so I can move on...

AF due Friday, so trying to hold off until then. Hubby just texted to say he's not feeling great either, so could be we're both coming down with something
